Quotes4

  • Eddie: I'm waiting. I can wait all day if necessary.
  • Zaphod Beeblebrox: Computer, if you don't open that exit hatch pretty damn pronto, I shall go straight to your major data banks with a very large axe and give you a reprogramming you will never forget. Capisco?
  • [pause]
  • Zaphod Beeblebrox: Okay. Get the axe.
  • Ford Prefect: Proving nothing. I wouldn't trust that computer to speak my weight.
  • Eddie: I can do that for you, sure.
  • Ford Prefect: No, thank you.
  • Eddie: I can even work out your personality problems to ten decimal places if it'll help.
  • Eddie: [he's been switched to his Emergency Back-up Personality, which sounds like a nagging mother] Now this is going to be your first day on a strange planet, so I want you all to dress up snug and warm and no playing with any naughty bug-eyed monsters!
  • Ford Prefect: Zaphod, I can't help what you may personally be in orbit around, but this ship...
  • Zaphod Beeblebrox: Computer!
  • Ford Prefect: [wincing as if in deep pain] Oh no!
  • Eddie: Hi there. This is Eddie, your shipboard computer, and I'm feeling just great, guys, and I know I'm just going to get a bundle of kicks out of any program you care to run through me.
